Spring Chicken With Peas And Onions Recipes

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken thighs with salt and pepper. In 4-quart Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add chicken in batches; cook 4 to 6 minutes or until browned on both sides. Remove chicken from Dutch oven.
• Add onions to Dutch oven; cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until tender. Add chicken and broth; reduce heat to low. Cover; cook 25 to 30 minutes or until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (180°F). Remove chicken; place on platter. Cover with foil to keep warm.
• In small bowl, mix milk and flour until smooth. Beating with wire whisk, add flour mixture to cooking juices in Dutch oven. Increase heat to medium. Add peas and tarragon; cook about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until peas are tender and sauce has thickened slightly. Pour mixture over chicken.

Steps:

• Place the chicken wings in a small saucepot and cover with water. Add the lemon and bay leaves, and sprinkle with salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pat the remaining chicken pieces dry and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat the EVOO in a deep skillet or wide Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, side-down, and cook until crisp, 15 to 18 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook, partially covered with a lid or foil, until cooked through, 8 to 10 more minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate. Lower the heat a bit, then add the shallots and sugar to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Deglaze the pan with the wine, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom, and cook until reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Strain the poaching liquid and add 1 cup of it to the skillet. Add the peas, carrots and herbs, then stir in the butter and season with a little more salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook until the peas and carrots are tender, 6 to 7 minutes. If you are not serving the stew immediately, stop after you add the carrots and peas (do not simmer them). Arrange the chicken on top and cover. Cool and store in the refrigerator. To serve, removed the chicken to a broiler pan and crisp up under the broiler. Simmer the stew until the peas and carrots are tender, 6 to 7 minutes. Return the chicken to the stew.
• Ladle the stew into shallow bowls and top with the chicken. Serve with warm buttered baguette.
• Cook's Note: You can use store-bought chicken stock instead of the poaching liquid if you want to skip that step.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Toss in the pearl onions and blanch for 3 minutes. Drain them out and then shock them in ice water to stop from over cooking. Drain again. Pinch the pearl onions out of their little skins and set aside.
• In a 3-quart saucepan over medium heat, combine the chicken broth, 2 tablespoons of the butter, and 2 teaspoons of the dill. Once the liquid gets hot, add the pearl onions and peas. Cook and stir for 5 minutes until well coated and thickened slightly. Add the lemon juice, watercress, remaining butter, and dill; season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• While the oil heats, season the chicken with salt and pepper.
• Add the chicken to the pan and brown on all sides.
• As the chicken pieces finish browning, remove them to a plate and set aside.
• Turn the heat down to medium and add the onion.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion begins to wilt, about 5 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook for 2 more minutes.
• Return the chicken to the skillet.
• Add the wine, let it boil rapidly for a minute and stir with a wooden spoon to remove any bits that may be stuck to the pan.
• Add the chicken broth, turn down the heat so that the mixture simmers slowly and place a lid, slightly ajar, over the skillet.
• Cook until the chicken is completely tender, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a small pot of salted water to a boil.
• Add the asparagus and cook until it is crisp-tender, about 2 to 3 minutes, then drain.
• Add the asparagus and peas to the chicken, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes to heat through.
• To serve, heat the cooked potatoes and divide them among 4 bowls.
• Add chicken, asparagus and peas to each bowl and spoon some of the sauce over the top.
• Enjoy!
